What kind of sewer/septic systems are used?
A There are no sewers in the development. The Department of the Environment of the Government of Belize is requiring the use of approved septic tanks for sewage disposal for each individual lot owner within the development. Permits may be obtained as part of the permitting process in constructing your home. No other means of sewage disposal systems will be permitted unless approved by the Department of the Environment and ARB. Gray water holding tanks may be used in conjunction with drip irrigation systems for the fertilization of local planting. Each owner or occupant of a lot must participate in the recycling and reclamation program(s) established for the development. As such, you are required to obtain and maintain recycling bins for crushed metal, cans, glass and plastic bottles and/or containers on your lot.
